Blink-182: Not Now [Reading 2010 LIVE]

[softtacos]

toms not singing his best cause its cold as fuck sorry but i think if you were trying your hardest to play guitar with cold fingers and singing at the same time i dont blame him for focusing more on guitar,

[markoOosloquenderoxD]

tom back please ...!!

[hpfreak2003]

It's not that he can't sing well, he just chooses not too! Hahaha I<3Tom

[1818infinity]

tom and mark look old but travis looks the same

[atticus0011]

the 2nd verse makes up for his attempt at the first :')

[jicaxoxo]

WHY!! WHY IS BLINK 182 SO AWESOME I HATE THEM!! WAIT I TAKE IT BACK I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

[punkalways182]

I like his voice here! That's kind of a difficult song to sing anyway. Tom is the bomb.

[rixn1987]

even though he cannot sing very well live, the songs he has written so far (with any band) are worth it :)

[blinkMATIC]

I can't believe how nobody talks about travis drumming in this video.JUST EPIC!

[MyEmpire91]

1:20 epic move by mark :D

[mbzuid]

2 kids and a babysitter xD

[paradrummer21]

Fuck yeah tom!

[AvACrowds]

it doesn´t matter how he sings his song...it´s his song,he wrote that song ....he can perform his song how he wants....cause you know why??? because he´s motherfucking TOM DELONGE...the man who wrotes more than 100 amazing songs and changed the lifes of thousands of blink and AvA fans...like me! it doesn´t matter how he performs his song....as long it´s performed by BLINK 182!!!!!!

[ozymay]

@AvACrowds Sure.. he can sing it however he wants.. but he still sucks.

[UltimateToast99]

Tom sounds drunk or on pills or something.

[multiasociacion]

este video es de lo mejor de blink ojala bengan a mexico ..... os vamos a estar esperando con los brazos abiertos...



[stish04]

that's just the way he is

he's a rockstar

he can do whatever he wants and their fans will still fucking like it

[AlexisGolnas]

Best song

[WhatD0Y0uTh1nk]

I guess people don't realize that it sounds 1000 times better when your actually there watching the artist in concert and not in some video

[stutteral]

tom's voice has gone downhill... if a ordinary guy went up and sang like that, the comments on here would be much different.... He sounds like a retard.

[00000000MUSIC0000000]

@stutteral i think tom's voice is good, here i have no problem with it. i would like to see you go up and sing this sone plus play guitar in frount a bunch of screaming fans..

[stutteral]

@00000000MUSIC0000000 I do it every month! hehe trust me, tom has done much better in older concerts. He's trying to incorporate, angels and airwaves, in with the blink style.... Not working very well.. He probably has no problem singing in front of thousands of strangers. He has done it all his life. He has gotten lazy with vocals. I speak this in my own opinion, I'm not stating facts, as thousands will have their own opinions.

[stutteral]

@00000000MUSIC0000000 Why not?? look at artist such as ozzy osbourn?? lol he can't really say a straight understandable sentence,, But he sure can sing.. even after years of vocal abuse. Tom is a young buck yet :D It's all about effort and passion.

[00000000MUSIC0000000]

@stutteral ozzy osbourn, has been and will be a good singer, haha whats a " young buck yet" ? :) and yes tom puts a lot of effort in to his singing but lets face it, his voice is going to change, and it has. it also makes him sound bad live.

[iRollUp256]

@stutteral thank you,I love blink but id be pissed paying for tickets listening to a guy i can top singing.

[notyourkidd]

2012 :D

[LucasTheRipper]

well, i think his voice still amazing..

[GreenScreenPunkGirl]

people please shut up. stop complaining, stop whining, stop bitching. every damn blink video has comments about toms voice. who cares? hes TOM DELONGE. hes not going to try to change it for you, or for anyone else. he is who he is, and he sings how he sings. its not going back, so stop it. accept it. listen to the music for what it is.

[grakkiel]

@THENACHUSKY Because he's a bad singer.

[AVA1234]

Tom sounds drunk :/

[THENACHUSKY]

why is tom's voice so bad in the shows?

[LucasTheRipper]

@THENACHUSKY bad?

[blazertide92]

now he can play it the right fuckin way instead of sucking it up in AVA

[182morablink]

blink 182 en mexico los queremos

[squidgywizards]

Tom is still amazing but you can tell he tries to hard and it makes his voice sound all weird:( but I love him so it's fine.

[thebeast6671]

OK so yeah Travis and mark are just as much to blame for blinks breakup. tom left because they told him after two years straight of being on the road that he could not go home to his family and a two year old daughter who he never got to see.it was on start the machine. if you watch interviews mark and Travis only say how they were pissed at tom never why the band broke up. theirs a reason for that. but it doesn't matter cause blink is back. so lets enjoy and be grateful for their new music.

[johnreal182]

Fucking tom screwed up blink!

[SavageCaca]

@johnreal182 Shut the fuck up no he didnt... You're a fucking idiot and not a true blink 182 fan if you think tom screwed up Blink. They still kick ass just like they did back in the day!

[vosouch77]

it´s pity that Tom sings now as in AVA.Before It was better :)

[IwettexD]

where are you, old good Tom Delonge?? ):

[MrLmagno]

Mark saves the song at the end

[alesanava]

he sounds like dick

[ciarandorrian]

tom had skin cancer thats why his voice is so messed up there but its 2012 now his voice is good now

[WhoMadeWho33]

@ciarandorrian a lot of it did have to do with him getting drunk too though, he admitted that himself.

[rhud0825a]

@ciarandorrian how does skin cancer mess up your voice

[Vivalacrazee]

@ciarandorrian are u fucking stupid hahaha

[ciarandorrian]

@Vivalacrazee im am pretty stupid but skin cancer can mess up your voice

[musesyndromeee]

@s4n1l

please stop talking sh*t!

/watch?v=lxL_VB4u5OM

/watch?v=J57Er5PA8k8&feature=r­elated

do they look pissed at one of these videos? NO - Thanks

[s4n1l]

mark and travis look so pissed...no wonder they spilt up

[MrTydawkins]

@s4n1l it's a serious song

[scoller]

didnt he also have skin cancer around this time?? somthing that has the common effect of messing with your voice

[babylovemelody]

I don't know but like Tom's voice in here..

[allisonandally]

marks backing vocals give me chills<3

[TheMurrayMeister]

What the fuck are you guys talking about ? if you had any sense or knowledge about bands you would know most bands drink before shows....

[iimdudits07]

1:08-1:21 is that tom delonge on the mic or is that bill murray from kingpin?

[fuckyeah49]

ive seen them 3 times live since they got back and its never been like this wtf

THEYVE DONE WAY BETTER THUMBS UP IF YOU BEEN TO THE NEW SHOWS LIKE HONDACIVIV TOUR

[priceyboy]

@fuckyeah49 yeh man i went to the last show of the tour with someone who has been seeing blink since the early days with scott and he said it was the tightest he has ever seen them

[drumArthur]

One of the best live performances Ive ever seen :')

[mcnofx]

jesus christ, tom..

[MidgarsMako]

The inventor of the coolest riffs in the world- Tom Delonge!

[GioRawwr]

Return back to the old guitar and voice to this great man, please.

[OLiiB182]

I have no idea why, but I like Tom's voice in this

[Pondebong]

@OLiiB182 It's because he survived cancer, he broke many disks in his spine.

[BenjaminC94Guitar]

Your not allowed to drink before shows just in case you say something offensive, he would be checked to see if he was drunk before the show by many people - Manager, PR. You have to take in account the age of Tom and the fact that you are listening to punk. If you don't like it don't watch it.

[CriMxDelAxCriM]

@BenjaminC94Guitar actually tom openly admitts to getting drunk before shows lol

[JsMFC1]

@BenjaminC94Guitar In the UK your allowed to be drunk .. in scotland's T in the park is bigger than reading but all festivals here the bands well most drink before they go on but think its only beer there aloud to drink !

[cdsmee]

To be fair on all the tracks they played at this show (Reading Festival 2010) Tom sounds like a cat, but the instrumental precision on this track is actually quite outstanding.

[cokietheclown513]

ahahahaha hit 1:28 over and over. tom sounds like a cat <3

[sloppygran]

the rest of the members of +44 disliked this video

[AnthonyFishMusic]

people who say tom should stop drinking, most bands drink before they play and while they are on tour etc

[wiouxev]

@AnthonyFishMusic But do they sing terribly?

[AnthonyFishMusic]

@wiouxev not really but its blink lmao,if you listen to the stuff from 2011 Tom has improved, watch the pro shoot from Las Vegas 2011 :)

[AnarchyGuy6]

tbf it's punk, it's not meant to sound good.

[mattcattt]

@AnarchyGuy6 *pop-punk ergo the exact opposite.

[AnarchyGuy6]

ie a supgenre of punk... clearly not the opposite

[mattcattt]

@AnarchyGuy6 It was a flowing statement, correcting the fact it wasn't punk and stating that it, as pop-punk is meant to sound a lot more coherent focusing on melody and clean vocals compared to actual punk. It sucks I had to actually explain that to you.

[Aussiboy182]

lol there is actually a video that shows Tom before he gos out on stage where he talks about how he drinks because he's nervous

[kimberlaand]

360p sounds better that 480p

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa blink magic?

[CharlieTNS]

1:58 I think that Tom feels like flying with Ava

[beshba]

you guys have to consider the fact that tom uses vocal effects in the studio. so he may be singing the exact same way he does on record it just sounds off because he doesn't have the vocal effects live.

[aarondenmanthr33]

BATMAN FTW.

[viedass]

@vuppeli Tom Delonge goes drunk to the warped tour and he goes drunk to one of the biggest festivals in Europe. No big deal

[CosmicCents]

Tom's hair looks like Mark's.

[AdelaideAnon89]

Hurts my ears.

[PyjamaBoy93]

AVA in April, Blink in June and July. It's gonna be insane!

[thisiskenney]

I fucking love the melody Tom sings during the chorus at 3:11

[dwg48843]

Roses are red

Violets are blue

I fucking love

Blink182

[jkowalkowski3]

@dwg48843 this is genius

[SuperDbopp]

I have always liked toms voice i don;t know why people always complain about it..

[greenday41papa182]

295,000th viewer!!

[jkowalkowski3]

I think Tom actually sounds decent here. The beginning when he's singing in the lower key is definitely sketchy but after that it sounds ok. The angst from the studio version of the song is not really in his voice, but he sounds pretty good nonetheless.

[kamikazeephi]

at least he's not LIP-SYNCing.

[DollFace12067]

Tom, stop drinking before the shows :|

[vuppeli]

@DollFace12067 how the fuck you know he drinks?? You hang with him at the backstage in every show?? dear god

[over18hahalol]

@vuppeli Because it's pretty fucking obvious he's drunk? And he drinks, you've probably never seen their videos of them doing random shit. in some of them they're drinking/are drunk.

[vuppeli]

@over18hahalol Ok Mr. alchohol Meter, Ok. and if they do random shit in some videos it doesnt mean hes drunk in one of the biggest festivals in europe.

[over18hahalol]

@vuppeli Okay, calm down. He just sounds better sober, alright?

[Johnnyguitar145]

@DollFace12067 , i couldn´t agree more =/

[CastAirLead]

@DollFace12067 he doesn't he just can't sing live

[JohnDaKilla]

@CastAirLead Yes he does. He's admitted it more than once.

[Narunaru65]

@CastAirLead LOL Tom can't sing live? You've obviously never seen an AvA concert.

[mybandtopend]

@Narunaru65 i have and he can sing amazingly so shut ya mouth

[tamasandyryanmail]

channing tatum was there !!! 4:13

[AlbaAleman]

what if he failed at every single .note..? he's clearly making an extra efford to do it rigth... that's what i luv about him.... always trying to dos his best and even if he can't he does give his soul to the crowd

[TonytheTurtlePTV]

@AlbaAleman Well not really, he doesn't try with Blink. Watching AVA play live is like a whole different Tom.

[AlbaAleman]

@TonytheTurtlePTV well AVA is all about Tom.. and it shows.. but blink is a band with 3 genius... so sometimes it'd semed that he's not trying enough.... but i think he does....

[kputy2008]

when mark sings with tom at the last chorus: the world is complete

[stealth2three]

Does anyone know why they don't play this in the US?? It is by far their best song!!

[CamoThrasher784]

best song ever....this live version gives me chills

[Patrickmartinish]

@RiseAgainstGoodMusic go die

[MegaFindu]

@Patrickmartinish riseagainstgoodmusic is a great guy,he just said that tom should stop singing in blink-182...he had never said any bad things about blink or something!

[avafuture]

@RiseAgainstGoodMusic hahaha you have fag remarks lol

[alczyn182]

@RiseAgainstGoodMusic that comment is so, so, so dumb. you're trying to say that blink is the greatest band in the world, but the guitarist and one of the lead singers, who wrote most of the songs should just not sing anymore and just leave? seriously, so dumb.

[alczyn182]

@RiseAgainstGoodMusic Go listen to +44 then. simple as....

[alczyn182]

@RiseAgainstGoodMusic What he lacks in vocals, he certainly makes up in awesome song-writing and he has the looks of a god, so, uum, FUCK YOU

[MegaFindu]

@alczyn182 Shut the fuck up,tom`s voice sounds horrible,nothing to do about it!

[alczyn182]

@MegaFindu LAUGH!

[MWGlendale315]

if you love blink you know this simple fact.....

No one not anyone can suck as perfectly as they do!

But Tom is defiantly drunk if this performance!

Still love it though! Blink is the shiz always was always will be!!

[thecodybostaff]

everyone who is making fun of tom's voice just needs to lay off. Do you have any idea of what live performances does on the voice and how many live performances this guy has had in his life? And sometimes people just have bad days. Go watch the at&t concert, he actually sings quite well. Plus he's older and people change. True Blink fans enjoy what they hear and don't complain.

[WBK14B]

to the 42 people that dislike this: FUCK YOU ALL, YOUR ALL GRANNYFUCKING BITCH ASS HOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAH, YOU SET OF Wankers!

[TheTaptap19]

come on guys its still alright..... i guess..... and theres a lot of pressure so dont judge so much

[DollFace12067]

Tom is an awesome singer tho, it usually varies in different live performances. In my opinion, he has better singing talent than Mark. Toms voice stays in tune and doesn't always go flat. This song would be difficult to sing anyway.

[thotya]

@DollFace12067 Surely you jest. Tom stays in tune? Have you heard him? I'm not hating on Tom but to say he's always in tune is a joke. Mark is a much better singer than him at the moment.

[lolwut31]

as a 10+ year long blink 182 fan, I can safely say tom's singing in this performance was a fucking embarrassment....

[misspdt]

jesus tom...ps travis is perfect

[Desertmark]

tom should know tha is't that good singer he thinks he is, he just can't handle the variants he tries to do when he sings. Mark just plays it safe and he sound good

[MrRsmv]

people*

[MrRsmv]

shut up pople!at least tom's voice is better than bieber!and his voice sounds punk :D

[DeeLiification]

Am i the only one who think's Tom's voice is fine?

[Desertmark]

@DeeLiification yes

[1986LuisK]

ok listen he never had a good voice he really dont know how to sing ok it dosn't matter if he relax or something really....I sing and I can tell you that he just simply dont know how to sing but it dosnt matter is a punk rock band I mean nofx is the best band and fat mike sucks but as the people said here blink 182 rules because they have to much energy!!!!!!! PUNK RULES!!!!!!!!

[Desertmark]

@1986LuisK i agree in part with you. he really doesn't know hwo to sing, but after all these years of singin I think at least he should sing as good as before and not worse and maybe a little better...

[osza06]

I agree with a lot of the comments about tom's voice but this performance was still solid and good!

[Desertmark]

@osza06 excuse me but you're just deaf. ask anyone who knows a little about singing and it will tell you he sings horrible 

[osza06]

@Desertmark Excuse me but your FUCKING ILLITERATE! read what i typed. i said the performance as in the musicality-tempo, dynamics, precision of notes played through the instruments live compared to the recording- was solid. Never once did i say his voice was good. in fact, i said i agreed with most of the comments about his voice being bad. so to reiterate in the ignorant fashion that you speak, think about what you tell a music major (me) and ask anyone who knows how to read wt i said

[mike182forever]

you all are hating on toms voice..but tom is my hero, and i think whatever he does is great. i get chills when i hear this song. so, screw the hating tom thing. blink-182 forever!

[CFHaudioslave]

tom is so strange lately!

[willsnowboard4life]

do you guys have any fucking idea what he has gone through with his voice? you cant say shit all.

[rehf10]

868 likes this? tom's voice/attitude was horrible, he's singing a lot better now, maybe he 've been watching the clips of their performances, i wonder if mark and travis get mad at tom for singing like shit xD

[deenoeat]

@rehf10 same dude! i wonder all the time what mark and travis think about the tom's vocals.. that sounds terrible! i get really pissed at this! damn just sing naturally dont try to make an et voice! T_T'

[Bangcarlos]

it is perfect

[HeathG95]

@RiseAgainstGoodMusic Its called the Tom DeLongue accent

Gotta love it

[oskarmj1320]

Only travis Dont changed

[MegaD96]

@oskarmj1320 mark?

[Meadus22]

Look at it this way, who cares what toms voice sounds like, at main thing is that they are back together, toms voice has improved in 2011 and still will, he has stooped drinking before shows that also could of been a factor, AVA has a effect on his voice with there music style, tom also had skin cancer which treatment affect you voice, the main thing is were all blink-182 fans and we are all happy there back together so give them time, but no regard they will always amaze us

[WeKnowYouHateUs]

@Meadus22 Stopped drinking before shows? He was pissed out of his head here!

[Meadus22]

@WeKnowYouHateUs Yes he is, But I mean in shows after this on he has done

[dpblink182]

@Meadus22 blink-182 is the best band, there has ever been and will is the best there will ever be. I LOVE BLINK 182!

[Meadus22]

@dpblink182 I agree 100%

[musesyndromeee]

@RiseAgainstGoodMusic

you are horrible too

[jukkaman24]

tom sounds absolutely horrible

[321654franco]

@jukkaman24 fuck you if you like blink 182 you have to like tom

[jukkaman24]

@321654franco thats the stupidest thing I've ever heard

[shane809887]

Tom really sucks here. It's a good thing he is starting to sing more like the Blink side of him at his Blink performances rather than singing like he is at a Ava concert.

[brunodfff]

I`m sure he sings drunk everytime hahaha

[Benedicto93]

I feel honoured that Mark has chosen to live in my country...That is all

[blinkmen1]

tom wtf that is not ava :D mark n travis r the same but tom... man why ? xD

[MrRossdawson182]

@blinkmen1 Watch performances from 2011 and you will see how much Tom has improved in his voice.

[davidbaylorcarter]

travis’s tattoos are so gay haha. i wonder if he got melissa removed from his neck yet lol. what a good band though. lucky buggers.

[OhMyDelonge]

@davidbaylorcarter You call Travis Barker's tattoos gay and then finish your comment with "Lucky Buggers"???

[davidbaylorcarter]

@OhMyDelonge did it. didn’t you read what i said?

[findwaldokillwaldo]

I really don't think anybody cares or needs to worry about Tom's voice at this point. Anybody who already likes them isn't going to stop liking them and anybody who doesn't like them probably isn't going to start.

[mx22man]

he decides to sing like shit on the biggest gig of their life

[punkfanzrul]

@mx22man Do you think they honestly give a shit

[mx22man]

@punkfanzrul well obviously not derp

[fuller2094]

Tom's voice is Blink-182.
